This document is a case study detailing the advancements made by New Ancorvis, a company in the dental industry, through the adoption of 3D printing technology. Established in the 1940s, New Ancorvis has evolved from a milling technology expert to a pioneer in innovative production solutions. The company specializes in producing prosthetic components such as crowns, bridges, and surgical structures using CAD-CAM technology. The case study outlines how New Ancorvis began testing 3D printing systems in 2016, leading to significant improvements in production efficiency and customization. By utilizing TRUMPF's TruPrint 1000, the company has reduced production times for individual abutments by 80-90 percent compared to traditional milling methods. The document also discusses the company's future plans to expand its 3D printing capabilities into other medical fields and its ongoing partnership with TRUMPF to enhance preform technology, which is still emerging in the dental sector.
